Worksheet protection and autofilters

by  Klopper  Posted    (Edited  )
To protect the data in a worksheet but still allow users to use the autofilter function, use VBA to set the "userinterfaceonly" argument of the sheets.protect method to "true"

eg.
ActiveSheet.EnableAutoFilter = True
ActiveSheet.Protect contents:=True, userinterfaceonly:=True
